Dividend History

The dividend growth strategy is the one that most appealed to me when I began my investment journey. While I prefer to target companies in the so-called "sweet spot" with 2.5% to 4.0% current yield and annual growth in the 6% to 10% range, I also realize that growth is a critical component to this strategy and try to balance out the portfolio with lower starting yields but faster growth opportunities.
